This is essential training if you are starting out as a welfare rights adviser or need a good understanding of the benefits system. It introduces you to the social security system and important concepts to help you maximise benefit entitlement. You will gain a detailed knowledge of the core benefits and assessments involved in welfare rights advice – universal credit, the personal independence payment assessment and the assessment of limited capability for work – learning how to maximise entitlement and deal with problems. You will also learn who gets the ‘legacy benefits’ that universal credit is replacing and about the transfer process.
